Aéroport de Buffalo Range

L'aéroport de Buffalo Range (code IATA : BFO • code OACI : FVCZ) , est un espace d'aviation avancé n°7 (FAF) pendant la guerre du Bush rhodésien, est un aéroport desservant Chiredzi, dans la province de Masvingo, au Zimbabwe. Il est situé au nord de la nort-ouset de la ville, de la côte ouest américaine. Histoire La base aérienne de Chiredzi est mis en service vers 1976. Dès septembre 1979, elle était suffisamment vaste pour permettre des opérations impliquant le Douglas C-47. Au début des années 1980, la piste 14/32 a été inaugurée en substitution de l'ancienne et transformée en voie de circulation. Ces aménagement avait pour objectif de faire de l'aérodrome une infrastructure stratégique. Aucune rénovation des installations existantes n'a toutefois été entreprise. En 2004, l'aérodrome était à usage mixte, civil et militaire et abritait l'École de formation militaire. Installations La balise non directionnelle de Chiredzi (Identifiant : CZ ) est implanté à 3,75 milles marins (6,945 km) du début de la piste 14. La balise non directionnelle de Chiredzi ou Buffalo Range (Identifiant : BI ) est installé sur le domaine.

Bulawayo Athletic Club

Bulawayo Athletic Club is a sports club in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. The Bulawayo Athletic Club Ground is a 12,000-capacity stadium. History The club was founded in 1894 and has been a significant venue for many international sporting events. Cricket is the main sport played at the club, but tennis, bowls, squash and billiards are also played. On 12 August 2007, a fire broke out at the club, destroying the members' bar area and billiards rooms and causing damages of up to US$400,000. The Walkden Hall, the squash courts and the changing rooms were saved from the blaze. The fire was believed to have been started by an electrical fault. At the Hockey Africa Cup of Champions held in Bulawayo in 2014, the Bulawayo Athletic Club ladies team reached the competition's final. Two Bulawayo Athletic Club players were in the gold medal winning Zimbabwe ladies hockey team at the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow, Patricia McKillop and Helen Volk. As a cricket venue In the summer of 1992, the Zimbabwe national cricket team was granted Test status. Shortly afterwards, Bulawayo Athletic Club hosted one Test match (becoming the country's second Test venue, after Harare Sports Club) and one One Day International, with New Zealand the visitors in both. New Zealand won the ODI, on 31 October, by 22 runs. The Test began the following day, but was badly hit by rain and a lack of adequate covering, with ten hours of play lost. In addition, the wicket was poor, as were the attendances (1,000 on the first day and a few hundred each day thereafter). Thus, when international cricket returned to Bulawayo, it was played at the nearby Queens Sports Club. Bulawayo Athletic Club continued to host domestic matches, and along with Queens Sports Club served as a home ground for the Matabeleland team. International Centuries Test Centuries Only two Test centuries have been scored at the venue. One Day International Centuries Four One Day International centuries have been scored at the venue. List of Five Wicket Hauls Tests Only one Test five wicket haul has been taken at the venue. One Day Internationals Two ODI five-wicket hauls have been taken at the venue.

ТЕС Хараре

ТЕС Хараре — теплова електростанція в Зімбабве, розташована в столиці цієї країни місті Хараре. Як і інші теплові електростанції Зімбабве, ТЕС в Хараре відноситься до конденсаційних та розрахована на використання вугілля. Перші генеруючі потужності з'явились тут у 1942 році (Station 1). Цей об'єкт видавав 21 МВт та пропрацював до 1970-го, коли був виведений з експлуатації. На той час тут вже існували ще дві черги: споруджена в 1946—1955 роках Station 2 потужністю 75 МВт, яка мала дев'ять котлів та шість парових турбін (дві по 7,5 МВт, дві по 10 МВт та дві по 20 МВт); введена в експлуатацію у 1957—1958 роках Station 3, котра складалась із двох турбін по 30 МВт. Станом на середину 2010-х п'ять котлів та три турбіни Station 2 були демонтовані, а сама вона з серпня 2014-го не працювала після вибуху на одному з котлів. Існували плани її відновлення та модернізації, проте головною проблемою було віднайдення джерела фінансування проекту. ТЕС продовжувала роботу своєю третьою чергою. В 2011 році генератор агрегату № 1 вийшов з ладу, проте в 2016-му його повернули до роботи. Станом на 2017-й Station 3 працювала з потужністю 40 МВт, чого вдалось досягти після ремонту та введення в дію другого котла. Планувалось також відремонтувати третій котел, що дозволило б досягти номінальної потужності у 60 МВт. Примітки
ТЕС Munyati

ТЕС Munyati — теплова електростанція в Зімбабве, розташована в центральній частині країни у 150 км на південний захід від Хараре. Як і інші теплові електростанції Зімбабве, ТЕС Munyati відноситься до конденсаційних та розрахована на використання вугілля. Воно постачається сюди з розташованої за 600 км вугільної копальні Хванге (також забезпечує найпотужнішу в країні ТЕС Хванге). В 1947-му тут ввели перші дві турбіни потужністю по 10 МВт, після чого в 1950—1957 роках додали п'ять турбін по 20 МВт. Для охолодження станція використовує воду із річок Себакве (подається каналом довжиною 23 км) та Munyati (трубопровід довжиною 3 км). Станом на 2015 рік станція працювала з потужністю лише 19 МВт. Саме тоді був проведений тендер на будівництво тут двох нових парових турбін по 50 МВт кожна, проте практична реалізація проекту затримувалась через проблеми з фінансуванням. Примітки
Bulawayo Thermal Power Station

Bulawayo Thermal Power Station is a 90 MW (120,000 hp) coal-fired thermal power plant located in the city of Bulawayo in Bulawayo Metropolitan Province of Zimbabwe. Location The power station is located in the central business district of Bulawayo, approximately 442 kilometres (275 mi), by road, southwest of Harare the capital and largest city of Zimbabwe. The coordinates of the power station are:20°09'33.0"S, 28°34'33.0"E (Latitude:-20.159167; Longitude:28.575833). Overview The power station is owned and operated by Zimbabwe Power Company, (ZPC), a parastatal of the Government of Zimbabwe. ZPC is a 100 percent subsidiary of Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority. The station was constructed between 1947 and 1957 by Bulawayo Municipal Council. At that time, generation capacity was 120 megawatts. The plant uses coal, primarily from Hwange Colliery, which is brought in by rail and road. In 1999, the power station underwent a major overhaul and modernization repairs, which reduced generation capacity to 90 megawatts. As of 2019, the generation capacity had deteriorated to about 30 megawatts, due to antiquated equipment and lack of maintenance for many years. Upgrade In 2019, the Zimbabwean government publicly announced its intentions to overhaul, refurbish and modernize the power station, so that it would generate 90 megawatts again. Two of the six cooling towers will be demolished in the process. The remaining four cooling towers will be refurbished to prolong their life span by another 15 to 20 years. In November 2018, the Government of India extended a line of credit worth US$333 million to the government of Zimbabwe, of which US$23 million was to fund the upgrade to Bulawayo Thermal Power Station.

ТЕС Булавайо

ТЕС Булавайо — теплова електростанція в Зімбабве, розташована у другому за величиною місці країни Булавайо. В 1948-му та 1952-му на майданчику станції ввели в дію дві парові турбіни потужністю по 15 МВт, а в 1953, 1955 та 1957 роках їх доповнили трьома по 30 МВт. Через знос обладнання фактична потужність станції поступово зменшувалась. В 1999 році провели масштабні ремонтні роботи, які дозволили підняти цей показник до 90 МВт. Втім, станом на середину 2010-х потужність станції знов знизилась та становила 30 МВт. Як і інші теплові електростанції Зімбабве, ТЕС в Булавайо відноситься до конденсаційних та розрахована на використання вугілля. Видача продукції в енергомережу відбувається під напругою 33 кВ.
